    Arkansas: Who Do You Think Of?

    Mitch Mustain. Such a roller coaster of a career. There is also a great documentary about him on Amazon Prime if anyone is interested.

    Tipping in restaurants.

    Maybe. I am not a restaurant owner and don't know the ins and outs. I did work as a dishwasher for like a year and a half at a local BBQ joint when I was in high school. I have read this report, however, about the NYC restaurant scene written in 2019 after they raised the minimum wage to 15$ an...

    Tipping in restaurants.

    I'm not arguing they should be paid minimum wage. I would prefer they be paid a living wage. And in my opinion those are not the same thing.

    I have not. Shame on me I guess.

    Tipping in restaurants.

    What type of restaurants did they serve at would be my question? If most people tip based on percentage of the bill, and you work at a high end/exclusive restaurant, of course you will make more than your person serving at the local sit down BBQ joint

    Tipping in restaurants.

    I'm sure some (many?) will disagree but the act of tipping just seems so antiquated and a way for restaurant owners to cut cost. IMO, it needs to be done away with. Just pay people a living wage and most of these tipping or lack of stories go away. With that said, I generally tip 20% unless the...

    USC to have accelerated fall semester.

    I would be curious to hear from some players on what they want to take place this fall. While I'm sure the majority are in favor of playing, I'd be willing to be that more than a few are not totally comfortable with it. And unlike pro athletes, there is no union to represent them. Top players...

    This is so true

    I'd like to know his definition of "poor". As it stands, this quote, to me, seems tone deaf and a bit out of touch. There are events that can happen in life, of no fault of a person, that may put someone in such a situation with little to no room to recover.

    A certain thread got locked before I had a chance to defend myself.

    Not sure how this moved to somewhat of an abortion thread but linked below is an interesting article about a woman who was Republican and Pro-Life who decided to vote Democrat. It does bring up interesting points that you cannot fathom unless you end up in that position yourself...

    Ever wonder why Conservatives are called Right and Liberals are called Left?

    This is one reason I will never vote for the nutty left. Washington State came within one vote of

    Fair enough. But the idea that you don't want to pay for anything that does not directly benefit you is just not possible. Large parts of our society are built on that. I'll never get to golf in the same way Presidents do (Obama & Trump) but my tax dollars still go to that. I'd rather that money...

    How often do you use the Fire Department or the local library? You pay for things all the time you don't use frequently. It's the greater good mentality behind social programs. They are there for others when they need it, and they are there for you if you need it. If you never do, be thankful...

    I never said I 'followed' the teachings of the guy I mentioned. Only that he does a good job of articulating a Liberal Christian lifestyle.

    I am a Christian actually. But we do have separation of Church and State for a reason. Governments are designed to be impartial (which is borderline impossible, I know) to religious bias when making decisions so I try to do the same. Call me a bad Christian if you choose. As for free food...
